Rob Stanton, business development director at Landbay, said: “With as much as £66 billion in buy-to-let mortgages still set to mature by the end of the year, expanding our remortgage offering with new two-year trackers gives intermediaries a wider portfolio to secure this business. Trackers will continue to play an important role, providing a flexible solution as landlords weigh up their options in the current climate.

“News of a softer stress test on like-for-like remortgage products and rate reductions will be welcome too, helping brokers increase the borrowing potential of their clients. Utilising our own system and technology enables us to constantly innovate and respond quickly to both market changes and client demand.”
